Shadowsnipe, I completely agree with ypou. You said just about the exact same thing as me, but I still agree.
EDIT: Also, shadofox who left a little while ago says that Samus wins.
we'll see i say the winner will be whichever game sequal Halo 2 or Metroid Prime 2: Echoes sells more.....guess we will have to wait and see (ITS MASTER CHIEF!!!! he'll kick samus BACK to the future)This is a who would win in a fight contest, not popularity contest.
i think that master chief would win because he is...um...cool?
he has a freakin' army to help him!This is a fight between the MAster Chief and Samus, not the Human Race as Seen in Halo vs Samus. And the coolest aren't always the strongest.
exactly, cause i like master chief betterAgain, the coolest aren't always the strongest.
I didin't know who Samus was until i saw the pics. Anyways, since I know who Master Chief is. I guess he would win. He looks cooler too and halo is cool. So ya Master Chief you win. But if you think about it, Samus looks like a big guy (is he a robot?) so if you compare i think Samus would win but i know who it is so...AGAIN, this is not a popularity or who is cooler contest, but a fight. And Samus is a girl with a really big powered combat suit. Like uber-Marine suit. REally uber.
See though, if you have played both Metroid Prime and Halo, you should know that Samus can only sidestep (something that I can do in my sleep) when she is locked on or when she is holding her aim. Master Chief can kill a Hunter as seen several times in Halo. Should Samus try this, her locking system would go right to the center of the Hunter. Hardly a challenge for the Hunter. So is Chief>Hunter and Hunter>Samus doesnt that mean that Chief>Samus? Plus for those of you who said that that her armor is too tough for MC to break, what happens in Metroid Prime after you defeat the Parasite Queen? Her armor gets broken by crashing into a wall. I think MC could do more thatn that.This is a contest of who would win, not which game has
better controls.
As for getting broken by crashing into a wall.. I've never beaten the game, so I can't really say anything about that, except that it's
A) Gameplay INCONSISTENCY
B) Her armor was very severely weakened
C) You mean that a large wall crumbled and smashed her
D) And the MC can be killed by having a Jeep bump into him about as hard as me walking into him... I think running into a wall with a quarter-ton armor suit would hurt a LOT more...
Samus would totally dominate master chief. But i wonder, even though his human weapons blow, what about the covenants energy weapons? I think a ball of hot plasma would hurt just as much as some lava. And what about the energy sword? He could just chop off a limb or two. Also, samus can't cloak like mc can. And he has all those badass vehicles. PFT run he ass over!A) A ball of hot plasma... her cannon, in it's weakest state, fires what I guess are 'balls of hot plasma'. Let alone a charged plasma cannon.
B) I ALREADY SAID THIS, BUT... LAVA doesn't hurt her... and in the case of the video games, it's lava so melted it's nearly as thin as water... what makes you think a small bolt of plasma will do much?
C) Okay, he grabs the Plasma Sword, and Samus owns him with her Cannon or Missiles before he gets in range. Also, in Halo2, the Plasma Sword will not be a 1-hit kill against the MAster Chief, let alone Samus.
D) He can't cloak. It's just that Active Camouflage happens to be compatible with his suit. But remember: Samus has X-Ray and Thermal Scopes, both of which can detect cloaked enemy, and also, who says there's gonna be some AC in the arena?
E) This isn't a Video Game battle, it's a character battle. The vehicles aren't integrated into his armor: he can just use them.
Not to mention 3 other spartans to help him. (yes, there are 3 others alive, if you haven't read the third novel, he meets up with them. Hell, there was one on halo the whole time, except she was still frozen in one of those tubes)As far as I'm concerned, poorly written books by idiots don't mean

.
And, according to the GAME ITSELF, rather than said

ty novel, "you are the last of your kind".
I believe the instruction manual states that you're the last Spartan II, but I don'thave it with me so I can't be sure.
"MA5B: They'll just bounce off her armor"
Metroid Prime Samus gets hurt by Zoomer Spikes, War Wasps, and other oversized BUGS. Master Chief deals with advanced alien enemies shooting Plasma. So he should be used to Samus plasma beam. And dont even mention the ice beam, that would only make him cold. In reality a block of ice hitting you would not turn your whole body into a Chiefsicle.Okay, you got me on that, large insect-like-beasts are able to hurt her, but they also have a lot more weight and size behind them, so they'll hit you a hell of a lot harder than a normal Earth-insect.
And also, the Master Chief, who can't even kill a GRUNT by slamming a ROCKET LAUNCHER with all his strength down on its head, yet punching another MC will be enough to nearly kill him... while as MA5B rounds do crap damage. They're pretty weak, as far as I can tell.
Also, Samus's Plasma Beam is far more powerful than either the Plasma Pistol or Plasma Rifle. His armor is only somewhat Plasma resistant, according to
stupid book. And don't call the Covenant advanced when you're comparing them to Samus. The technology in her suit allows her to store hundreds of missiles the size of her suit's arm in it. It allows her to roll up herself and her suit into a ball that's maybe 1.5 times the size of my head. Without any physical damage to body or suit.
LASTLY, I never read ANYWHERE that the ice beam shoots out 'blocks of ice'. As it is capable of insantly freezing small creatures, while allowing them to stay in mid-air at their current location, so this obviously isn't a block of ice. My guess is that the 'ice' is minimal, and for the most part it's a time stasis device. And don't complain it's unrealistic or anything; the space-altering and gravity-altering technologies make stasis technology look like bows and arrows.
we arent saying samus doesnt own, just that master chief pwns herEvery reason for MC owning her that I've seen thusfar has been nullified. Your statement was completely idiotic...
Teh master chief would win.
Why, you ask?
If we can flip a 66 TON TANK LIKE IT WAS NOTHING, HE COULD CRUSH SAMUS, PUNCH A MILLION MILES AWAY, OR KICK HER STUPID MORPH BALL MODE LIKE A ing SOCCER BALL.
Plus, MC moves much faster. Read the books, half a kilometer in 32 seconds flat. He also has uber shielding, and could probably withstand lava because of the coolers in his suit. If all else fails, he has a fusion back on his back to blow up.
Case and point GG No Re.Coolers in his suit allowing him to withstand lava?
That... just doesn't make sense. I don't see how you could make a cooling device that allows you to withstand WATERTHIN ROCK.
Read the books? The books are written by

ing stupid authors, and should never have been labeled 'official'. Uber shielding? COME ON. It's weak as hell. Fall from, maybe, 15 feet up and it's obliterated. With Samus, she can fall from over a HUNDRED, YARDS in the air and suffer NO damage.
Okay, suppose you can argue that the reason he runs so slow in game is because he's conserving energy, and his suit is so damn heavy.
Well, Samus can run at such dashing speeds as to obliterate rock walls without any slowdown, and sustain the rate for as long as she wants. And compare their armor; hers is a lot bigger.
master chief is tougher...and...he can "block out" pain, so that if his arm got blowed off, he would need to care. Samus can't do that.Lemme guess, you got that from the book?
Well, first off, HOW is the MC tougher?
Second of all, what does it matter if he can block out pain if he's dead?
Third of all, who says Samus can't?
Fourth of all, he may be able to ignore pain, according to a stupid novel, but that won't stop him from bleeding to death, only from caring that he is.
Lol MasterKouga, that is the most intelligent thing I have ever heard from you.
Off topic, but atleast it's something new and refreshing frm all the stupid crap I've been hearing about why Samus or MC would win.
In fact, I'd say that despite its only mediocre, err, smartness, it's one of the smarter posts in this thread.
